    Sorry i was replying to this post:

    General tech discussions on all types of metal detectors: VLF, 2-box, BFO, off-resonance, PLL, etc. Questions, ideas, and anything else that moves you.


    Thanks!

    Hi all, i have just purchased an old minelab tribune in VGC but it is not working there seems to be a wire on your picures that is not present on the pcb of mine? i bridged this but it still did not work.Sorry im a complete novice with fixing detectors so was wondering if anyone was quite knowledgeable with this model?

    It 's another version of the Eldorado schematic.


    I seem to remember talk about Vic's metal detectors way back in the mid 1970s.
    Some 5 to 10 years before the Tesoro's came around
    I may be wrong here, but maybe the 'Eldorado' from Tesoro is a version of Vic's 'Red Heat' machine and not the other way around.
    It is certainly possible and just a thought.
    My RedHeat was made June 10th 1993
    (see my dated/signed machine photo earlier)

    The Eldorado was introduced about 1986.

    Could you clarify :
    R13 = Brown, Red, Broown = 120 ohms
    P1 = ?
    P2 = ?
    R23 = is it</SPAN>connected toP1 ?

    </SPAN>
    P1 & P2? Controls? Left is Disc, Right is Boost.
    All other controls/parts etc are in the
    battery box under the arm cup (No photos of this are possible)

    R13 & R23 see other photos

    Not about to take it apart again,having already spent lots of time cleaning,supplying component info etc.
    Did I waste my time guys???

    REDHEAT

    This looks to be about the lot. 1 comp- with no visible markings.But I'm sure you
    will figure it out.

    The big one should be 4024.
